Challenges and new concepts in antibiotics research

Overview

Antimicrobial resistance threatens the prevention and treatment of an increasing number of bacterial infections. To avoid a post antibiotics crisis, innovations and breakthrough ideas are urgently needed in all areas of antibiotics research conducted by academics, clinicians or industrials and new prevention and control measurements by public health agencies and politics have to be developed.

The Challenges and new concepts in antibiotics research conference will bring together speakers and experts who are leaders in the field of antibiotics resistance and the development of new molecules and alternative strategies. It will provide abundant opportunities for networking and exchange of information between senior scientists and professionals, new investigators and students, in a pleasant and informal setting.
This meeting is organized under the umbrella of theLabEx project “Integrated Biology of Infectious Diseases” (IBEID).
